This is THE original pressing on the Tekito Lable.
"Electric Company and Vas Deferens Organization is another teamup between VDO and Brad Laner and features the classic freaked out madness that we've come to expect from the VDO camp. There are numerous layers of electronics and CONSTANT shifts in the action making this extremely hard to follow, yet one hell of fun ride.

My favorite electro-mindfuck tracks are "Mind Of Ashes", "Extracting Epiphanies From The Thicket Of Implausibility", and "A Hep Cat's Electric Hair Ball Apparatus". Another great track is "Tinsel Termites In Barbed Wire Brassieres", a psychedelic eruption of the most violent and ear-splitting sort. At its core this is similar to Can and the brief groaning wigged out vocals are like Damo gone berserk (more so than usual). Freaky guitars and mindfucked electronics blast the brain from all directions. There are lots of cool electronics which can only be appreciated with headphones on, the drawback being that the really aggressive distorted stuff will destroy your eardrums. The suffering is well worth it though.

But VDO apparently have some mercy as "Hushed Plateau Of Gelid Elves" gives the listener a break from the madness with its space-ambient (ambient in the VDO sense) exploration into a pulsating mechanical realm. Still aggressive but I was sweating from the first two tracks and welcomed the break. "Snappy Smarm" is another somewhat different track. Still an ambient backdrop but we start to get weird and slightly violent again. And the drum beat and trumpet give the music a jazzier edge. In summary, this is among the most well-crafted freaked out madness you can find. Aggressive electronica that demands the listener's attention. It's only 35 minutes in length, but believe me... it makes its statement quite succinctly in that timeframe."-From Aural Innovations #10 (June 2000)
